Soulfish Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 I don't think I've ever met anyone that has managed to blag as much free stuff as you James
EduTech Posted January 21, 2010 Author Posted January 21, 2010 I don't think I've ever met anyone that has managed to blag as much free stuff as you James I think i will be banned from BETT next year!! lol

Snuffkins Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 What he fails to mention is his original guess of over 5000 1
EduTech Posted January 21, 2010 Author Posted January 21, 2010 What he fails to mention is his original guess of over 5000 Shhh!! Bloody IT Managers!!! 1
witch Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 Blimey, if you are going next year I am going to follow you around (or maybe see where you are headed and get there before you!) I love Smarties - they are my favourite sweet... s'pose I'll have to be content with my 4GB usb stick that I blagged..not a patch on your success though
leco Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 I think EduTech should share the Smarties with all those who visited Bett but didn't win anything.

I love Smarties - they are my favourite sweet... s'pose I'll have to be content with my 4GB usb stick that I blagged..not a patch on your success though I think I might have to join you. I can just remember James coming back to the stand laden with virtually every freebie going
srochford Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 I'd guess the best thing of all is that Smarties are one of the many foods which James doesn't like - looks like you will have to share them out after all :-)
jedmondson Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 all i got was 10 pens, a mug, squeeze stress ball, cheep bags, coffee and the pizza.
GrumbleDook Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 38 USB sticks (including a complete set of Smoothwall reps), 6 mugs, 2 cuddy toys, too many pens to count, cufflinks, 9 different bits of software (and some more to download for free), 9 different highlighters, 2 sets of adobe badges (one courtesy of Ric_ ... do I get bonus points for scrounging from a scrounger?), 2 CD carry cases, a tripod (ok .. belongs to Russdev ... I do hope someone had told you I've got it!), an EG mug (donated to a colleague), an EG case sticker, 3 t-shirts and a polo shirt, 5 stress devices, 2 flashing bouncy balls (again, thanks to Smoothwall), various notebooks (the paper type ... not the Lenovo type), post-it notes, 5 bars of rock (2 left), some AB Tutor Control velcro ties, lots of bags of mints and assorted sweeties .... erm ... I think that was it. Not as good a haul as last year when I also got a Frog umbrella (donated to kmount), an Intel laptop rucksack (donated to my wife), a Microsoft IT Academy satchel and a few other small bits. Not that this is a game ... it is a serious endeavour!
leco Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 ... and there was me thinking that Bett was about educational technology;)
jedmondson Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 an EG case sticker [snip]can we order these?
kmount Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 Donated is such a strong word Pfft, you always do so well Do I get points for trying to scrounge from the scrounger who scrounged from the scrounger? (or points for writing that)
GrumbleDook Posted January 21, 2010 Posted January 21, 2010 Do I get points for trying to scrounge from the scrounger who scrounged from the scrounger? (or points for writing that) Hey ... that would look really good on a business card.
EduTech Posted January 25, 2010 Author Posted January 25, 2010 Woo! My Smarties turned up this afternoon :D see image hehe James.
witch Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I think I would kill for that amount of Smarties...
Aggy Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I think I would kill for that amount of Smarties... witch... I can actually see this happening heheheh
john Posted January 25, 2010 Posted January 25, 2010 I see james is harassing poor Smoothwall staff in his email and probably slacking at work as ever hey Snuffkins As for prizes, I'm sorry but mine beats the pants off yours My Genee World (from interactive education) Interactive Voting System arrived today 32 Interactive voting handsets and software pack and the maths department have stopped asking about the new printer from ICT Direct, missing software and niggly projector just when are they coming to give the training and when do they get the voting system
EduTech Posted January 25, 2010 Author Posted January 25, 2010 actually! i was getting my serial number so i can activate our box so shh! and as ever smoothwall on the ball and got it sorted within minutes I dont slack at work john, dont listen to what snuffkin's says he lies hehe
